Many of the native Americans consider the frog to be the 'Great Rain Maker'. With the last snowfall of spring the snowflakes touching the ground would turn into frogs announcing that the salmon would soon arrive. The frog tattoo is associated with water and the moon which is a symbol of fertility, prosperity and wealth for the coastal tribes in North America.

One of the more interesting types of tattoo choices is that of a word or phrase. While some have gotten in serious trouble (such as those that get a tattoo of a girlfriend's name only to break up the next day), in general, tattoo letter designs are a fun way to get a name, phrase, or statement placed on your body that duals as both body art and a public declaration.
